The Oakley Meta Vanguard smart glasses were officially unveiled at the Meta Connect event on Thursday. These innovative glasses represent a fresh take on the smart eyewear concept, distinct from the more casual Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. The Vanguard is specifically engineered for high-performance use by athletes and outdoor adventurers, featuring a robust wraparound design and a prominently positioned central camera. This launch expands Meta’s smart eyewear lineup, joining the newly introduced Meta Ray-Ban Display and the third generation of Ray-Ban Meta glasses. Interestingly, Meta had offered a sneak peek of the Oakley Meta Vanguard glasses just days before the official launch, in a YouTube video released on Tuesday.
